T/WEEN
BOOK TALKS ROCK: Join us as we talk together about 'Drums, Girls,
and Dangerous Pie' by Jordan Sonnenblick' and rock out to this book. Conversation, candy, and chillin'. This is a
great read for middle and high school ages.
Copies of this book are available at the main desk.
Please register t/weens entering grades 5 and up in the Fall
of 2018 for this Wednesday, July 11th event that will take place at
6:30 PM.
‘Thirteen-year-old Steven has a totally normal life: he plays
drums in the All-Star Jazz band, has a crush on the hottest girl in the school,
and is constantly annoyed by his five-year-old brother, Jeffrey. But when
Jeffrey is diagnosed with leukemia, Steven's world is turned upside down. He is
forced to deal with his brother's illness and his parents' attempts to keep the
family in one piece. Salted with humor and peppered with devastating realities,
‘Drums, Girls, And Dangerous Pie’ is a heartwarming journey through a year in the
life of a family in crisis’.
COME and rock out together with other tweens and teens. Book
talks rock!
